A Rheem basic electric water heater with one element replaced with a AO Smith of the same specs. Hot water liine in and a cold water line out, each line has its own 1/4 turn shut off valve installed. Once I had it plumbed up I turn the water on at the street and eased the valve on to the water heater. Also opened the valve on the hot water side. I could hear the tank filling up and it did blow the air out of the line when i opened the kitchen sink to run it. But it stopped suddenly and no water would come from the hot or cold sides anywhere in the house. The outside hose bib does have full pressure. Im stumped, thought it was a vapor lock but I cut the lines to the hot water heater and opened both valves but no water came from either line.
Any ideas?
